I just recently picked up Oblivion on the cheep on the theory that as I enjoyed Fallout 3 and have never really gotten into fantasy games, this might be a good introduction.

So far, all I can see is what a huge improvement FO3 must have been to those that played Oblivion first. The combat system is a nightmare, the country side is bland and samey, all the villages feel way to similar to each other and the dialogue assignment is buggered.
